How do they possibly eat that much poop?

Post by KellyCrabbieLove » Sun May 03, 2015 8:01 am

For animals that barely eat, within an hour there is a massive amount missing and no trace of it just being knocked out of the bowl. I mean...I pile it HIGH and it is almost level within an hour, 2 max. How?

I just don't get it. Hundreds of dollars in hcp stuff and they love the poop the best.

I need to pick up more worm poop! It's been forever since I've had any but when I did, they loved it. Moose poop was a hit too. The only other thing I've seen them demolish every time like worm poop is HCP mineral supplement.

Yes! They eat the worm poop pretty consistently, but mine LOVE the mineral supplement.

I was lucky enough to find 1lb bags of organic worm castings at a local greenhouse for $2, and that should last me forever.
Crabbing since July 2014! 75 gallon with 12 Purple Pinchers.
